Rebirth in 1976 begins with educated youth

Yuanping Village brigade headquarters.

Seeing Liu Yan walking in, Fan Yanping asked while loading tobacco leaves into his dry tobacco pot, "Why didn't you see Lili come to work today?"

Liu Yan smiled and explained: "Dad, I asked her to rest at home for a day!"

"Are you sick?" Fan Yanping asked with concern.

"I just want to sleep a little longer." Liu Yan shook his head, quickly changed the subject, and then said, "Dad, I have a way to make money."

"Making money? Does the family have no money? If not, let Lili get some from the family..."

"Dad, I know you love us and have been helping us! But how long can you help us?"

Liu Yan continued: "Lili and I have been married for half a year, and we officially received the certificate yesterday. As a man, I hope I can show off."

"Huh, huh?" Hearing what Liu Yan said, Fan Yanping couldn't help but be stunned. He stared at Liu Yan for a long time before saying, "You look a bit like a man, but I have to remind you of some things!"

"Father, tell me!"

"I hope you will follow the right path, make money openly and openly, and don't engage in crooked ways!"

"Dad, don't worry, I am doing this not only for myself, but also for our Fan family, and for all the people in Yuanping Village," Liu Yan said.

Fan Yanping was stunned again, frowning and staring at Liu Yan again. After a while, he said: "Okay, if you have any method, tell me!"

"Dad, in the past few years, I have seen that every household in our production team has many bamboo baskets and baskets made by themselves, as well as bamboo stools, bamboo beds, bamboo mats...

I want to find a stable and long-term way to make money for Yuanping..."

"Oh? Do you want to make plans for Bamboo?" Fan Yanping suddenly became energetic.

Liu Yan nodded vigorously.

Fan Yanping continued: "To be honest, Yuanping is a place with high mountains and long roads, inconvenient transportation, barren land, and cannot grow food and vegetables, but there is no shortage of bamboo.

You see, every house, in front of and behind the house, and all over the mountains and fields are covered with moso bamboo.Moreover, even children can weave bamboo products. "

"In the whole Yuanping production team, Lili's mother has the best bamboo craftsmanship. Every time she takes it to the commune market, she exchanges the most things."

"Yes! It was because I saw the bamboo products at home that I came to discuss it with dad.

Dad, haven't you ever thought about collecting these bamboo products and selling them in the city? "

"Uh... I really never thought about taking it to the market to exchange for some oil, salt, sauce, vinegar or daily necessities when the commune is going to the market."

"Dad, I have an idea, do you think it's feasible?"

"What do you think? Tell me and listen to it?"

“I want our mother and sister-in-law to come forward and organize and lead the aunts and uncles in each household to make various bamboo products.

As for the sales problem, I will find a way to solve it..."

"Liu Yan, we can't do things that are evil and capitalist!"

"Don't worry! The sales I'm talking about are the supply and marketing cooperatives..."

"What do you mean, do you want the supply and marketing cooperative to buy our bamboo products? Can the supply and marketing cooperative want our things?"

"If the bamboo products we make can be liked by city people, make them feel practical and easy to use, and make the supply and marketing cooperatives profitable, I think the supply and marketing cooperatives will be willing to monopolize the purchase and sales."

"But how do we know what kind of bamboo products city people like?"

“Don’t worry about this, we can do market research and then customize it according to the market demand in the city.

The market research is done, we just need to contact the supply and marketing cooperative.

In this way, not only do we not have to find sales by ourselves, but the income of the members can also be guaranteed to be stable in the long term. "

"Hmm...sounds really good..."

“Dad, the most important thing right now is to take out a few samples to see the market demand and response.

After this period of farm work is finished, I would like to ask my mother to make a few samples of bamboo curtains, bamboo mats, and chair cushions.

Then I went to the county supply and marketing cooperative and the provincial supply and marketing cooperative with my second brother and third brother to explore ways.

Bring back the city’s needs and feedback, including the supply and marketing cooperative’s purchase price.

If appropriate, I hope to organize the construction of a bamboo factory in our Yuanping Village and sign a purchase and sales contract directly with the supply and marketing cooperative.

At the beginning, we will order according to the demand of the supply and marketing cooperative.

After the market is opened, the production scale will be gradually expanded.

Moreover, the project of bamboo products does not occupy the entire labor force of the production team. As long as an aunt can make it, the labor cost is not high.

I did a rough calculation and found that if the work points were calculated based on the current full labor force of farm work, the personal income of the bamboo factory workers would not be less than three digits in one year.

After deducting personal income, the profit of the production team should be no less than five figures. "

"Liu Yan, what do you mean, you want to set up a factory in Yuanping?" Fan Yanping then asked.

"Yes! It is a collectively owned factory.

In the past few years, Yuanping's situation in Changyuan Commune has been better than that of those above and below.

But we are still far from truly getting rid of poverty. Relying solely on agricultural products is not enough, and we cannot develop by relying solely on each household working alone.

We must take the road of rural collective industrialization, rely on local characteristics and resources, and produce products with competitive advantages. This will not only help us get rid of poverty, but even make us rich..."

"Liu Yan, why did you suddenly think of this?

Before, you were always depressed all day long. Did you have a dream the day before yesterday? "Fan Yanping glanced at Liu Yan and felt that he had completely changed.

……

“It’s not a dream, it’s a vision, it’s a blueprint, it’s a goal that can be achieved through hard work.

Dad, I might as well tell you what’s on my mind!

I want to use the bamboo factory project not only to make money for the Yuanping production team and the people, but more importantly, to lay a solid economic foundation for further development in the future.

The ultimate goal is to improve Yuanping’s road transportation network, education level and medical level, so as to truly improve the living standards of local farmers..."

"Transportation, education, medical care..." Fan Yanping stared at Liu Yan.

"That's right! Poverty alleviation in the true sense is not just about solving the problem of food and clothing for the stomach, not just about solving the problem of clothing and food, but also about spiritual and cultural food and clothing.

If the road traffic problem is not solved and the cultural, educational and medical conditions cannot keep up, we in Yuanping will never be able to talk about truly getting rid of poverty and becoming rich. "
